DIY “I Love You Mom” in a Bag

Who needs a fun DIY idea for Mother’s Day? Last week I started making several little gifts for my mom – a sugar body scrub, bubble bath, wrapped candles. I wasn’t sure how to package them until I remembered my mom is always in need of a bag.

So I dressed up a canvas tote, added some magazines, snacks and pretty polish. And, voila –

“I Love You Mom!” in a bag!

The yellow was inspired by some lovely crochet thread I thrifted. To me, yellow is such a happy, cheerful color.

My bubble bath recipe ended up be a total dud – no bubbles but it smelled heavenly. So I’m still on the search for a good home recipe if you have one.

Wrapping candles turned out to be an excellent way to pass some TV watching time. I’ll share more how-to info later this week.

We had a great time in Nashville over the weekend but I’m definitely glad to be home. We’ll probably be off schedule for a week from Daylight Savings but yay for more sunlight.

What a lovely and thoughtful gift! I would love it if you would consider linking to Busy Monday at A Pinch of Joy, a Monday through Thursday link party for ideas that make life easier, better and more fun!
